UNSPSC 51241613 Coal tar/salicylic acid/sulfur is a Commodity code that encompasses topical medicinal compounds and first-aid supply products sourced by state and local health, emergency response, and municipal agencies. State and local governments acquire these products primarily through fire departments, emergency medical services, and public health divisions as components of emergency preparedness and occupational safety programs. The City of Tampa Fire Rescue Department, for example, solicited a range of first-aid and medical supplies including antiseptic sprays, hydrogen peroxide, pain relievers, and bandages through a comprehensive bid process that treated these items as part of a broader medical aid procurement. Issuing bodies under this code include municipal fire and rescue departments and city procurement offices managing emergency-response supply chains.

The City of Tampa Fire Rescue Department posted ITB 25-P-00157 in April 2026 targeting 32 medical and first-aid supply line items with an estimated total department budget of $100,000 and an initial one-year award period plus two potential one-year renewals. The procurement emphasized local economic inclusion through set-aside provisions for City-certified Small Local Business Enterprises and Underutilized Woman and Minority Owned Business Enterprises, offering bid discounts of up to $10,000 for SLBEs and $20,000 for U-WMBEs. Vendors were required to submit proposals electronically through the OpenGov eProcurement Portal, provide documentation including business licenses and minority-business status certification, and ensure all medications carried a minimum nine-month expiration date from the date of acceptance. The City reserved the right to award by aggregate total or individual line items, and bidders were required to submit a Letter of Intent within ten work days of bid opening.
